 plants, steadily grows. He has mag- 

 nificent spikes at present. 



Robert Heggie, lately of Chestnut 

 Hill, is now located at Woodfords, Me. 



On a recent call at the Harvard Bo- 

 tanic Gardens a fine display of Darwin 

 and other late flowering tulips was 

 noted. The hardy borders were attract- 

 ive and the greenhouse stock was all 

 in fine shape. 



A. G. Lake, of Wellesley Hills, is at 

 present strong on white and yellow 

 marguerites and Asparagus Sprengeri. 

 He will have his usual field of asters. 



William Robb, a well known practical 

 gardener, for many years in charge of 

 the gardens and greenhouses at the 

 Boston City hospital, died May 3 and 

 was interred May 5. The funeral serv- 

 ices were held at his late home on 

 Evelyn street, Mattapan. President 

 Kennedy and others, representing the 

 Gardeners' and Florists' Club, of which 

 Mr. Robb had long been an active mem- 

 ber, were among those present. A beau- 

 tiful design from the club, of galax and 

 roses, was included among the numer- 

 ous floral tributes.

 burn, and E. K. Farr, of Stoneham, are

 heavy shipper of English primroses,

 Ahern 's place has fully recovered from 

 a freeze-up he had last February. 



W. E. Beach, of Lowell, is a new 

 stallholder and shipper of carnations 

 to the Boston Cooperative Market. 



Mothers' day brought out a good de- 

 mand for flowers. White carnations, as 



usual, were in strong demand, but roses 

 were also much called for. Local re- 

 tailers, however, could easily do much 

 more to stimulate demand.
